You remember when Islamists were outraged over some caricatures? Remember Christians on their high horse telling you "Christians aren't like that, we'd let them say their piece and turn the other cheek"?
Yeah...

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Can I just go one day without them freaking about other people's freedoms? Can they just mind their own fuckin business for once? Please?
That's the one thing they cannot do. It would be such a better world if all of the busybody Karens could just mind their own business for the rest of their fucking lives, but they just won't. They think they should get to tell everyone how to live their lives.
Expecting the world to not offend you sounds awful snowflakey to me.
Aww, did the snowflakes get their fefes hurt? Pfft, suck it up kids. There's more people in this world than just you, and that ain't changing no matter how hard you kick and scream about it.
Conservatives are such a drag.
How was anyone supposed to know that Christians secretly adopted long tables as a holy symbol and that gathering behind them is now a sin?
Except it's not the Last Supper. It's the Feast of the Gods.
The modern Olympic Games come from the games held in Olympia, in the Ancient Greece. The blue guy is the foreground at the end of the show is Dionysus/Bacchus, God of Feasts and Wine.
This has to be a portrayal of the last supper devised as a clever scheme to upset Christians. I know this because at no other point in history have people ever been gathered around a table.
sigh
Uh oh, someone needs to talk to the Manager
is there a video of the performance available anywhere? i've tried searching for it but all i can find are whiny conservatives complaining about it
The whole opening was very French. I especially liked the end. Never liked Celine Dion much, but her rendition of Edith Piaf’s “Hymne A L’Amour was superb.
Anyway, NBC got wind of people stealing their IP and locked it down with take down notices going across the web.
Rankles 😂
MAGA is outraged that drag queens were used to portray a painting created by [checks notes] a gay guy.
When aren't they outraged lmao. Weak ass motherfuckers.
